Default Ramon

Another 3 winners today. How long has it been since someone has dominated like this at Saratoga? Even JV coming back and winning at a 25% clip hasn't slowed Roman down much. Pretty impressive.

Castellano also won three today. Ramon has won 2 stakes races at Saratoga and there are 4 jockeys who are beating him in that area.

Lots of good riding right now. Lezcano is awesome. Ramon is Ramom, great. JV coming back and not missing a beat is also pretty great.

Ramon has 17 more wins (from 21 more mounts) than the 2nd place jock, JJ. I realize he is getting some choice mounts, but it's not like this is Aqueduct in February and every winner he boots home is paying $3.40. Day in and day out, he is riding incredibly well vs. the toughest jock colony out there.

Ramon is great, but Joel is better!!

The mounts are building up, and Rosario will dominate as he did in So Cal...

I was even surprised by how fast he has got going in NY

Jockey threads are brutal because jockeys are brutal.

I suppose also that people thinking they are important contributes as well.
